Chapter 1039 Father and Son Goodbye



Chapter 1039 Father and Son Goodbye

The next afternoon, in front of the Fujita family's ancestral home.

Fujita Ying stood on the street corner, looking at the familiar building in front of him. He was wearing a navy blue gown, a gentleman's hat, and a black scarf covering half of his face.

In front of the gate of the mansion, a tense confrontation is taking place.

"Fujita Tsuyoshi! Don't be so shameless!" A man in a rough jade uniform was roaring, "We are searching on orders. If you stop us, you are shielding a criminal!"

Fujita stood in front of the door expressionlessly, his voice cold: "I said, without a search warrant, you can't even think of setting foot in Fujita's house."

"You!" The unpolished official blushed, "Are you shielding your traitorous brother?"

"Traitor?" Fujita sneered, "I want to ask, what is the basis for you to slander my brother as a traitor?"

"you......"

"What? You want to search the mansion of a prominent family at will without any evidence?" Fujita Tsuyoshi's voice was full of sarcasm, "Is the unpolished jade so domineering now?"

Just as the two sides were on the verge of a fight, a clear sound of footsteps suddenly came from the corner of the street.

“Stop arguing.”

Everyone's eyes turned to the source of the sound.

A figure was seen walking slowly from the corner of the street. He took off his hat and untied his scarf, revealing a face that shocked everyone present.

"I'm back." Fujita Ying said calmly.

"Young Master..." the servants in front of the door exclaimed.

"Brother..." Fujita Tsuyoshi widened his eyes.

The unpolished official had a ferocious look on his face: "Fujita Ying! How dare you..."

"Why shouldn't I dare?" Fujita Ying interrupted him coldly, "I, Fujita Ying, am going home openly. What should I not dare to do?"

"Catch him!" Pu Yu's team leader's face flushed with excitement, "This is a great achievement! Hurry..."

"Gang," Fujita Ying suddenly interrupted him, his voice cold, "You should understand what will happen to the Fujita family if they pass the news back."

Fujita Tsuyoshi stared at his brother. In just a few days, Fujita Taka seemed to be a completely different person, and his calm temperament was a little unfamiliar to him.

He gritted his teeth, suddenly turned around and shouted: "All guards listen to my orders!"

"Here!" More than a dozen burly guards rushed out of the courtyard.

"Control all these people!" Fujita waved his hand, "Don't let any of them go!"

"How dare you!" Pu Yu's team leader's face changed drastically, "We are doing our job, what are you doing..."

Before he could finish his words, several guards had already rushed over. Although those unpolished people were arrogant and domineering on weekdays, they seemed vulnerable in front of the well-trained guards of the Fujita family.

"boom!"

"stop!"

"You are going to rebel..."

In just a few minutes, all the people in Pu Yu were subdued to the ground, and even their screams were blocked.

Fujita Ying looked at all this, and a sneer appeared on his lips: "Gang, have someone lock them up in the basement. Remember, no one can leak the news."

"Yes, brother." Fujita waved his hand to signal the guards to move, then turned to Fujita Ying, "But..."

“I know you have a lot of questions,” Fujita interrupted him, “Go inside and talk. Is your father home?”

“In the study.”

"Very good," Fujita Taka straightened his collar, "It's time to have a good talk with my father."

The moment Fujita Toru stepped into the house, it was as if time had gone back.

"Young Master..." The butler was so shocked that he almost dropped the tea set in his hand.

The servants all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at him. The family members hid under the eaves, covering their faces and whispering. In their eyes, Fujita Ying was already a dead man, a taboo that could not be mentioned.

But Fujita Taka turned a blind eye to all this. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it slowly. In the smoke, his footsteps echoed in the corridor as he walked towards the study step by step.

"Get out!" Before he could push open the door, a loud shout came from the study, "I said I don't want to see anyone! Get out!"

Fujita Ying pushed open the door.

In the dim study, Fujita Hisashi was sitting at his desk. The once high-spirited head of the Fujita family now had gray hair and a depressed look. The desk was piled with documents, and it was obvious that the pressure of the rough jade had made him exhausted these days.

"Are you going to kick out your son too, father?" Fujita Ying said softly.

Fujita Shou raised his head suddenly, and when he saw who was coming, his face turned pale in an instant: "You..."

"It seems that my father has not been doing well these days." Fujita Ying walked slowly to the desk. "Isn't it that I, a rough jade, have caused you a lot of trouble?"

"You..." Fujita's voice trembled a little, "How dare you..."

"Father," Fujita Ying interrupted him and blew out a puff of smoke, "we should have a good talk."

He sat down opposite Fujita Shou and looked calmly at this once high-ranking father: "Regarding the future of the Fujita family and our destiny, it's time to make a choice."

"So..." Fujita Ying slowly put out the cigarette in his hand, his voice was terribly calm, "The family knew from the beginning that I was wronged."

He raised his head and looked into his father's eyes: "And you, my father, watched your eldest son become a sacrifice and was sent to the guillotine."

"Eagle..." Fujita's eyes were red and his voice was trembling. "You have to understand father. I am also doing this for the continuation of the family!"

His hands were tightly grasping the edge of the table. "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. No father is willing to sacrifice his own son. But..."

“That’s enough.”

Fujita Ying interrupted his father coldly: "I can understand, but I can't accept it."

The study fell into deathly silence.

The wind outside the window blew the bamboo forest in the courtyard, making a rustling sound. The father and son looked at each other across the desk, one with a guilty look and the other with a blank expression.

"Let the past be the past." After a long while, Fujita Ying finally spoke, his voice without any emotion, "Now, let's talk about the future of the family."

Fujita was stunned for a moment, then realized something: "You... you have a solution?"

"Yes," Fujita Ying raised a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth, "a way to bring the Fujita family back to life."

"I just don't know if my father will push me out as a scapegoat this time like he did last time?"

The night is getting darker.

Fujita Ying stood in front of the gate of the house, took a last look at the place where he had lived for more than 20 years, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

In the study room.

"Father, are you sure you want to..." Fujita Tsuyoshi's voice was full of disbelief.

"Do as I say." Fujita's voice was unusually firm. "None of those unpolished gems should be left alive."

"But..." Fujita clenched his fists, "The consequences of doing this..."

"Consequences?" Fujita suddenly smiled, with a bit of bitterness in his smile, "Compared to what we are about to face, what are these consequences?"

He stood up and walked to the window. "Your brother is right. The unpolished jade is like a mad dog. Once they know that Fujita Ying has been here, the entire Fujita family will be dragged down by them."

"so......"

"So those people must die." Fujita's voice was cold, "And it must be done cleanly, without leaving any trace."

Fujita was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "I understand, father. I will arrange it right away."

"Remember," Fujita Shou's voice came from behind, "From today on, the Fujita family has no way back. We can only move forward and not look back at all."

Fujita Tsuyoshi paused for a moment. He suddenly realized that during the two-hour conversation, his brother must have said something that made his father make such a decision.

And this decision will change the fate of the Fujita family forever.
